Does this meet the standards for a "Chris and..." article? slimz - ┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐ 05:15, 10 April 2012 (PDT)
- Unsure. It's actually a decent article, and has the potential to be even better, but I'm iffy about the name. --Old meme 06:14, 4 May 2012 (PDT)
- It seems like it should just be, you know "Contests". Boriki 23:01, 14 May 2012 (PDT)
- At the moment, this is a list article. For a "Chris and..." article, it would need, among other things, an introduction explaining the importance of contests to Chris. What kind of contests does he enter? Why does he put so much faith in them to further his own ends? Et cetera, et cetera. --Henry Bemis 22:10, 28 May 2012 (PDT)
- As far as renaming goes, I'd say "Chris and competition" would be more open for development than something so specific as "contests". --IwegalBadnik 23:30, 28 May 2012 (PDT)
As it stands now, does this article hold up to other Chris and articles?
I know there's currently an effort to reduce or consolidate the number of Chris and articles, so I figured this article should be evaluated. As it stands, it's mostly a list article. Though other Chris and articles are lists, they also usually include some kind of in-depth summary or analysis covering all of Chris's antics related to the topic, that goes beyond a simple lead paragraph.
Some possibilities:
- Redirect article to List of contests or Contests, and move to the list template.
- Add more content relevant to other Chris and articles, such as how Chris views contests or techniques that Chris uses to win contests. We can even go broader and create Chris and competition as someone else stated above. AAE (talk) 01:45, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
- An analysis on his various techniques of trying to win competitons is a good idea, how he made many accounts to spam votes and how he reacted to Losing competitons in the past could be covered. We can rename this article to List of contests and create a "Chris and competiton" article as you stated. - klop (talk) 01:57, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
